    Sure, but I usually run emulators and open source ports, so with an ARM I would have more battery life.

      No you wouldn’t. The Rockchips are far less efficient than AMD’s modern X86 stuff.

      AMD’s new stuff is on par with the M1 in efficiency.

          I don’t know if he’s correct on low power use cases, but the cooling is way more about the high power use cases.

          The steam deck can chew through it’s battery in ~2 hours or last something in the neighborhood of 8-10 depending what you run on it.
